I know a number of bugs of this very nature have already been reported, and hopefully fixing one will fix the problem globally. However, for the sake of completeness and because this time the bug has gone far enough to make me post about it, here's another example of "mixed-up alliances".
Select the party and walk downward; you'll run into a bounty almost immediately.
Observe that part of the soldiers that are supposed to fight you do, in fact, not; rather, the run in the opposite direction and start killing all innocent bystanders in the map. If you follow them, engage them, and hit them they will disengage and keep going for the innocents (one of whom is a quest giver and of course you can't have the quest if they kill her.)
This happened to me in other areas as well—enemies fighting innocents or other enemies—so it looks like 3.0 broke some part of the code that handle creature allegiances.
